it's similar to my other clients which are all working
fine... why would it be sending this tar command? (the
other clients are all having '/' be their directory)

Whenusing tar reference MOUNTED filesystems not raw disk devices. / is a mounted file system, the above is pretty clearly not, it should be like /var, /home, /usr, or somesuch. You can't dump an unmounted filesystem or raw device with tar.
